I am trying to find references and put together a list of all bacteria
that have megaplasmids. Although I am not exactly sure where the
dividing line between a plasmid and a megaplasmid is, I would say any
genetic unit above 100-200 kb is probably a megaplasmid. Do you agree?
I know about Alcaligenes, Agrobacterium, Rhizobium, and a few others. If
anyone knows of any other bacteria or Archaea that carry megaplasmids,
could you please write me at lanoilb at bcc.orst.edu?
Thanks, all
Brian
